I would welcome one. I'd love for it to be on Friday a couple hours before the start of the contest. The catch would be we would need to get enough critical mass to get some QTC activity. If we all a
I think Kai's point was that we already have fat signals in the RTTY sub bands, and the ARRL proposal does nothing to change that. I've had many a good QSO ruined by a fat PACTOR (or whatever it is)

FYI, the NCCC is sponsoring two practice runs for the RTTY RU this week. CU then! jeff wk6i Several folks have asked about practice runs for the upcoming RTTY Round Up, and would like to propose the
I am one of those that contends you have to listen to RTTY. Just like with CW and phone you get clues about the signal quality and can make decisions about your decode based on what you hear. In MMTT
There will be a dinner. I apparently got bad info on the catering details and was unable to get it set up before I left the country. I hope to have it resolved by the end of the week and have tickets
We've got catering sorted out. Note the following changes from previous years: 1. If you require a vegetarian dinner, please EMAIL me the number of dinners you want after you purchase them using the
And if you are not interested yet in diving into 8.1, you can buy a very good refurbished computer that come with win7 pro-64 for under $200. Some of them even have serial ports, and I was able to fi
Just a reminder that if you are planning on going to the Contest Dinner at the IDXC in Visalia, it would help if you bought your tickets by Monday morning (March 31st). That helps me give the caterer
Last reminder! You may purchase tickets for the Visalia Contest Dinner (this Friday night) up until tomorrow Thursday, April 3rd, at 12pm PDT. After that, sales are closed and there will be no sales
The good news (I hope) is that I'll be one of the RTTY ops at W1AW/7 from NV later this month. I'll make sure we work split. It might behoove others of us to become aware of W1AW/x operations near us
Has there been much clamoring for PSK contacts? If so, what is the best pileup-handling tool for PSK? I can do PSK when I operate W1AW/7, if I have to. ;) 73 jeff wk6i -- Jeff Stai ~ wk6i.jeff@gmail.
hi - I have been asked to write the next RTTY RU results article for QST. Because I took this on after the contest, I'm missing notes that I might have been able to take during the contest. So, I rea
If I was going to be there I would too. Someone who will actually be in Dayton should probably take charge of this. This company is ham-operated (Tom McShane, NW6P is the GM) and might even do them f
So here's the deal: Email servers send out rules to other servers on how to validate emails sent by them. yahoo.com, hotmail.com, and comcast.net and others recently changed their rules. They are now

A simple log of interference events is a good first start. The rest of the story is that I started wondering - if it so expensive to equip a station with the necessary modems to receive these automat
I have an even simpler analogy. If mixing wide and narrow modes is "OK", then why are we no longer allowed to transmit RTTY above 3.6MHz? QED. - jeff wk6i -- Jeff Stai ~ wk6i.jeff@gmail.com Twisted O
W1AW/7 this weekend is operating the 7QP contest, with operations in several Nevada counties. If you're into collecting counties you will want to pay attention to their locations. After the 7QP is ov
